Mrs MARKUS (Macquarie) (14:44): My question is to the Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development. Is the minister aware that congestion on Parramatta Road has reduced average traffic speeds to just 21 kilometres per hour and that the M4 is heavily congested for more than 13 hours a day? How is the Australian government's $1.5 billion commitment to the WestConnex project going to improve the living standards of people in my electorate of Macquarie and in Greater Western Sydney?
